Zelensky goes home with lots of promises but no candy

Looks like Zelly pretty much struck out in Vilnius. “Our thoughts and prayers are with you, pal, now piss off”! How long do you figure it’ll take for the ultra-nationalist factions in Ukraine to wake up to the fact that they and all Ukrainians have been used, abused, and betrayed by USA/NATO? The wake-up call is long overdue. From the get-go Ukraine’s Western “allies” slow-walked every military assistance package. Ukraine was pleading with NATO to close the skies since the first days of the war. It took over a year to get limited commitments of F-16 fighters, and none have arrived in country. Meanwhile, Ukraine was pressured into showing results for our grudging release of a few hundred main battle tanks, AFVs, and artillery, all of which are essentially useless without air cover. And now we lecture Ukraine about how they need to show more gratitude? Once the ultranationalist factions appreciate the gravity of their betrayal, they’ll hate America and NATO more than they hate the Orcs. There will be payback.
